8I'LlOI'.S' QlilQCQl'S I The Trojans of 1942-like warriors of Grecian Troy-go forth from education to war. December 7, 1942--Pearl Harbor-Japanese Treachery no more tires-sugar shortage-World War II-headlines and news flashes scream momentous news! The school year of 1941-1942 has been one of national importance. It has also been one of importance and achievement for the seventy-one graduating seniors. Trojan Field and the Football Queen-Regional Basketball Tournament - a semi-formal reception - sneak -Senior Play-Commencement-these are but few of the high- lights that '42 graduates will remember. Clifford Houghton, elected by classmates as their leader, proved an excellent choice. He was also president of FFA during his senior year, after serving two years in the club. Other activities in which Clifford partici- pated were Hi-Y, Student Council, Football, and Basketball. Edwin Cooke successfully executed the duties of vice-president. His work in Hi-Y entitled him to his Cabinet position for junior and senior years. He was a member of the Life Staff and Student Council, and ap- peared in the All-School Play, The Hoosier Schoohnaster. Harold Hubbard, capable treasurer of the senior class, gave a repeat performance of his freshman year, when he was elected as class secre- tary and treasurer. Musically, Harold has contributed greatly as a mem- ber of band, orchestra, clarinet quartet, woodwind quintet, and as clarinet soloist. He served in Hi-Y, Student Council, Debate, Tennis, Track, as School-Party Chairman and Reception Program Chairman. As Dr. Yen, he played in Relatives by Affection. Barbara Sherrard efficiently accepted the position of class Sec'etary. She also gave her time and talents in the following activities: GR, GAA, Pep Club, Chorus, Band, Archery Club, Masque and Gavel Club. She appeared on the high school stage in Why the Chimes Rang and Relatives by Affection. ' 9+ wlnoopsl f X I'o ' r Q'-vwf i

nnucil icsytalplp Joan Power, Rebecca Vallette, Margaret Gurley For the first time since way back when, the Trojan has had a trained staff. In the editcr's uneasy chair sits Rebecca Vallette, after sewing four years on the staff. Joan Power, a staff member for two years, handled the Trojan's finances, as business manager, and also did her s-hare of the writing. Cartooning is second na- ture to Margaret Gurley, who served three years on the staff, and was appointed art editor in 1942. Work on this book started last summer, and the staff has toiled away all year to make this annual the best yet! 'rep new-Phyllis Clark, 'rheda Norris Front Row-Margaret Gurley, Earl Shurtz, Bob McCall Without the help and persistent drive of our sponsors, Miss Gertrude Kirtland and Miss Kathryn Reynolds, the Trojan wouldn't have gone to press until sometime next summer. Clipping and mounting the pictures has been the tedious work of Phyllis Clark and Theda Norris, who have really come through. Although only several are pictured on this page, Earl Shurtz, Bob McCall, Betty Lenington, Carl Gildersleve, Jim Jones, and Rachel Young have completed the writing for the book.
